Hiyah guys thanks again for reading my story.. I feel like a broken record. I wish I had something better to say but sadly I don't. I am sorry ahead of time that this chapter is incredible short. It had to be, because the next chapter is so much longer. I promise. It just made sense to end this chapter where I did. Don't worry the next chapter will be the battle chapter..

Chapter 11

Bella looked around the room where everyone was sitting. There were new faces , who she thought was the Makah tribe. There was a very stressed Jake, who didn't look the lease bit happy to see Bella. All the boys looked exhausted, it wasn't fair of her to ask of this tonight, but he wouldn't stop at their tribe.

The vampires all sat together looking around and even talking to the Makah guys. Bella was surprised they were all getting along. She didn't expect it to happen this easy.

"It is about damn time, Swan," Jake hissed out as he finally noticed I was here.

"Seriously?" Bella asked as he cheeks turned red. " It is Swan now?"

" We are all exhausted. We have been running our butts off, and now you want to start the battle tonight? Of all nights? Hasn't there been enough loss? We have nothing planned, and here is Bella Swan demanding we run into battle," Jake hissed out as he stepped closer.

"Jake, I don't care if you are my alpha, you need to back the hell off of Bella," Paul warned as he stepped in between Bella and Jake. Paul knew his alpha was tired, but he didn't like the way Jake was talking to his mate. Jake didn't get to disrespect his mate in front of anyone. She was just as much part of the pack as everyone else.

" Edward text me," Bella spoke up .

"What the hell did that leech say?" Paul shouted and started to shake.

" That is why it has to be tonight. I told him I would meet him at the meadow at 10pm. Jake may not have a plan but I do," Bella said.

" What is your plan?" Sammy asked her.

" I go by my self. I have been thinking. From what I can remember from the newborn battle, which isn't much. I remember Jasper saying new borns are hard to train. They are blood thirsty. Not only that if they are hard to train, then how power is unstable. So what if she is projecting to hid the smell of the vampires, and accidentally hide your smell," Bella said.

"What do you mean?" A guy Bella didn't know asked.

" Edward wants me to think it is just him and I there, but we know the Volturi will be there. I can play along to Edward. Saying you guys brain washed me blah blah. My guess is the Volturi will have me surround so I have no way out. Lauren is going to have to be some place near, and if we can't smell the vampires when they are inside her power, then it is safe to say they can't smell you guys. I have been thinking. Clearly, their shield is going to be near their three leaders, but why would they bring all three leaders there. I am betting one of them won't be there," Bella spoke.

"I thought that too. It is rare that all three are in the same area at once. What you are saying about Lauren is probably right. If she is projecting her power over the vampires to hide their scent then it is safe to say they won't know the pack is there, but vampires don't breath. They only do it when humans are around. So even if her power doesn't work like that, they still would not be able to smell you," Carlisle said.

"So we let Bella go there by herself?" Paul asked. He was still shaking and looked like he wanted to tear off everyone's head in this room. They were crazy if they thought he was going to let Edward get that close to her.

" You are missing the point, I won't be alone. Everyone listen closely. It is a lot of circles. In the center circles it will be Edward and I. The next circle is going to be the Volturi, and then the last circle is going to be all of you guys," Bella spoke slowly.

" What happens if Edward just bites you?" Jake asked.

" Then we go to plan b. One of the Cullen's sucks out the venom it has been done before. Kick their dead asses then make sure I don't change," Bella said.

"None of that sounds logic, Bella. We can't take the risk," Jake said.

"Well, it isn't your risk to take. It is my life. I want this over. Do you understand what he did to their tribe is on me? He did it because he didn't have me. I can't sit around and wait for them to come to us. We go to them," Bella said.

" Her idea isn't that bad, but I know how to make it more believable. Edward is smart. He isn't going to believe Bella came along. Paul is going into the inner circle with her. You two are going to have to fake fight about this. Paul is going to have to be begging you, and you are going have to be made that you were brain washed, " Rose spoke as she was walking around.

" Then each of us has to sneak up behind the Volturi. Nobody can make a sound. Chances are they are going be so distracted by Paul and Bella, that they wouldn't notice us. We need to take out their shield. There is more of us than there are of them. It benefits us. We have a fire started, we can project images. Carlisle, how does their shield work?" Emmett asked.

"What do you mean how does it work? She projects it around them to protect them from attacks," Carlisle answered.

"So chances are she is protecting Edward, who is near Bella, and Paul. So Paul will have double the protection which means Jane can't do anything to harm Paul. The only way she could is if they drop the shield from touching Edward. I am betting Lauren will be in the inner circle too," Emmett spoke.

" If she does drop the shield we would know the moment she did. We would only have a second to destroy her," Embry spoke.

"I think we are getting the plans together. See we have nothing to worry about," Bella said.

"Bella, I would like to introduce you to the Makah's alpha, Dean. Dean wanted to meet you," Jake said . Dean kept staring at Bella through the whol conversation and it was starting to make her uncomfortable.

Bella put on a brave face, and stuck her hand out to shake his, " I am so sorry you and your tribe had to suffer great loss today. I never wanted any of this to happen. I want you to know that I am personally going to help fund raise and what ever else I can do to get your tribe's land back to being livable again."

He smiled, but he didn't take Bella's hand. Instead he did something to surprise everyone. He pulled her into a hug, "Don't you be sorry. There are bad people in this world. You didn't do that, those bad beings did this to us. I am just so thankful that everyone here has stepped up to help us out. I heard how much you and Emily have done for everyone. You opened your bakery to us as a posting point for people to eat and get blankets and clothes. I also know Maggie talked to you. I want to tell you that having them help us rebuild our tribe is an amazing idea."

Bella got a huge smile on her face, " You don't need to thank me. That is what we do. We take care of each other, and its La Push turn to take care of the Makah tribe. Opening our homes, and schools to people is the lease we can do. I also was thinking. I am betting a lot of people are out of jobs because of what happened. Emily, and I are going to be opening the bakery soon, and we are going to need bakers, and people to hand out the orders. Also, I have some other ideas I would like to share with everyone after all this is over."

" I couldn't ask you to do that," Dean said.

"You aren't asking, if anything this would help me a whole lot. You could tell me the best bakers you have and I can put them to work," Bella said.

"You are a very smart person. Just hearing you talking with the pack about a battle plan. Talking to me about job offerings, and helping our people. There aren't many good people left. Thank you," Dean said.

Bella smiled and looked at the pack, and their pack. Everyone was becoming one big family. She never thought the vampires would get along with enemies. After all this, she can't wait to see what happens in the future. She also hopes the Volturi gets taken over by the Cullen's and gets a name change. They maybe monsters, but there are ways to fix that.

"Are you guys ready to leave? The Makah tribe is going to stay here and check on their tribe, and our land. We are going to go and take care of business," Jake said.

Bella smiled and Paul pulled her into a kiss. It was the most passion kiss she has ever felt. She felt everything come her quickly. She remembers their first day, their first kiss, how it took him so long to get her to say yes to the date. She couldn't believe thing that was coming back to her. After this she was going to have to tell him she remembers.

Author note: again guys I am sorry this chapter is short.
